Yup, but the ldconfig is ouside the for ... done loop. I do a ldconfig
after every single package. Not a big issue and only sometimes required.

Me too. Saves me a lot of trouble. I really think paco is great.
Now all I need to do is to get my old video hardware to run in
accelerated mode. Currently, gnome runs in the fallback mode.
What I don't understand is this:
hermes~> grep disabled /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[ 52.013] (II) RADEON(0): GPU accel disabled or not working, using
shadowfb for KMS
[ 52.015] (II) RADEON(0): KMS Color Tiling: disabled
[ 52.168] (==) RADEON(0): Backing store disabled
[ 52.168] (WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled
[ 52.168] (II) RADEON(0): Acceleration disabled
[ 52.177] (II) RADEON(0): RandR 1.2 enabled, ignore the following
RandR disabled message.
[ 52.178] (--) RandR disabled
but
hermes~> glxinfo | grep -i yes
direct rendering: Yes
Gnome reports driver: Gallium 0.4 on softpipe, Experience fallback.
glxgears gives me about 35 FPS.
That's on a ATI Radeon 9200SE AGP graphic card.
Well, not a big issue, I think I should be grateful it works as it does
now :-)
Ciao,
Lars
